For anyone who has ever watched The Golf Channel it's remarkable how much Ted Lerner sounds like his brother Rich.

Game 11 Ouschan breaks.
Wing ball down, cue ball out of control and on foot rail, one on head rail. Safety only option. Tough safety to execute. Push out ties up two and five. Niels looks a while..........................................walks around the table...........gets down and attempts safety. Left it in sight but cue ball on foot rail and long with no future. Nice safety by Ouschan. Niels goes for the jumper. Pockets one ball, now can see the unmakable two. Safety not that easy hit well and gets good hook. Ouschan kicks and hits it real good returning hook. Niels needs to kick two rails for hit and leaves open two ball, straight in the side. Cue and two are very close. Jacks up and draws back pocketing two but real tough on three. Safety attempt leaves three in view but on end rail. More tactical battle here. Niels studies a long time.......gets down.....gets back up.....plays carom making five and no clear shot on three. Bad luck. Oh wow he could see it and cut it in the corner. Great shot. Balls laying good now.
6-5 Feijen

Just listening to the commentary (which is great by the way) and googled Ralph Souquet with hair PMSL :thumb up:
Game 12 Feijen breaks.
Wing ball in the corner. Parked whitey in the middle. Open shot on the one but hard shape. Executed nicely. Perfect shot on two gets shape for tough three to four transition. Makes four but can't get all the way back to the six. Leaves 85 degree cut or........Straight back bank, missed and left in front of pocket. Ouschan cool as a cucumber out again.

When did Feijen change his arm location?
He used to have it way away from his body.

Ouschan breaks.
Illegal break, pocketed one but not enough in kitchen. Niels has straight forward table. Does something funny from two to four, has thin cut on four with speed critical for five. makes four but cutting five a little easier though and back in line on the six.

9-7 Feijen
Ouschan makes one on the break. Hits side pocket titty trying cross table bank. Ralph thinks he is getting desperate. Leaves Niels look at one with bank or safety options. Misses bank but leaves not much. Safety by Ouschan gets hook but not tight. Two rail kick leaves open look at one with cut or safety options. Cuts it in. Good shape on the two just a little straight. Nicely struck, cool as Mr. Cool. A little short on five eight combo but no problem on the combo but five so close to pocket gets out of line on the six and misses the cut leaving the six hanging real deep with cue ball on side rail. Niels has to take long shape on the nine and misses, leaving cue ball on head rail and nine just past the side. A tester for sure.......Pockets the nine and cue ball hits point of side.
9-8 Niels
9-8 Niels
Rack 18
Niels crushes the break takes nine into kitchen and narrowly misses scratch in side. Pockets two balls. Makes thin cut on one but nine is covering up the four in the kitchen. Studies a long time before shooting two, leaving angle on three to go into nine four. Brilliant shot gets short side shape on four. Just a little straight but hit nicely to get longer six ball. In between seven cut in the side softly gets perfect on nine.
10-8

Absolutely riveting updates! Huge thanks from here. Can't view stream but hanging onto my chair. Go niels! He's been waiting for this opportunity for a while
Players on another break. Awesome high definition coverage.
We gotta get you to do this more often Greg! This is espn quality updates.
That shot from 3 to 4 on the rail is just awesome.
Its a treat to have Ralf Souquet in commentary box with Ted Lerner. Ralf doing a good job :thumbup:
They are back
Ouschan breaks, pockets two balls but has to call push out. Pushes to a jump and gets it back. Good hit but very difficult jump, leaves look at one with only safety options for Niels. Sticks whitey on foot rail and one beyond side, hooked. One rail kick by Ouschan misses, giving up ball in hand. Wide open table, connect the dots. Ralph says elementary but again in this situation nothing is elementary.....Niels is out.

11-8 Niels breaking.
Moved the score to the header so it would not be a spoiler.:wink:
Something went in the side, cue ball dead center of table. Oh yeah three others went also. Four balls on the break. Has to bank four cross side on second shot. A little out of line on six now. Six eight nine remain. Nice cut and looking good to get on the hill. Gets there.

What's the score now? And it's race to thirteen?
12-9 Niels breaking on the hill.
Had to reload missed the break. Ball down Niels studying ......... One near head rail cue ball just below the side pockets. Plays a safety. Ralph says "Not good". Left open shot on one. Mr Cool nails it and comes around nicely for the two. Great shape on the three, nice on the four, easy on the five, shoot and stop on the six, seven in the corner, nine in the corner.
